    And they just keep rolling in. My table is nearly full with a few more packages to go. I guess I gotta drink faster. Really excited about the Cuvee in this package but the others won't go unnoticed. Much thanks to you!

    Oh yeah! And he has added some additional dry hopping to the process he said. Really, really delicious stuff! He brought out a Belgian dark ipa too!

    I'm kinda surprised to see this thread still going, being that the deadline was a month ago. Good to see the majority of the boxes are making it to the winners, but curious as to the status of these 4 "no shows" you mentioned. Have any of them made any attempt to contact you as to the the status of their package? And just out of curiousity... how many packages have yet to be "shipped" to the winners?

    I'm surprised it's still going as well, I was hoping to have everything wrapped up by now. The initial deadline was a month ago, then the site went down so I extended it by a few weeks. Some participants didn't find their way to the new forums on their own and I had to contact them by email and resend shipping info. Of the 4 no shows, one shipped, one has contacted me and should be shipping soon. The two I haven't been able to contact are mmmhopslam and SuperNova777. I sent private conversations, posted messages on their profiles and repeatedly tried to contact them by email. Yesterday I put mmmhopslam on the bad trader list. I have a phone number for SuperNova777 and left a voicemail for him yesterday in a final attempt to let him make this right. He'll be put on the list soon as well if I don't hear back from him. Other than that, there are 4 boxes still being worked on by senders I've been in regular contact.

    I've also been in regular contact with the three winners and haven't been more firm with those who are still working on boxes because the winners have been very chill about it. If any of them decide enough is enough and they want their boxes now, we'll take care of it immediately one way or the other.
